Is Microsoft killing the Outlook Add-in?

Kyle Morgan

Hi all, I was just informed by our I.T. Dept that Microsoft is killing the Outlook Add-in.

We use this add-in quite extensively. Is anyone out there aware of a quick and easy way to attach emails to specific rows in specific sheets?

It sounds like we have until June when Microsoft will be permanently disabling Legacy tokens.

This is going to impact quite a few users on our plan that rely on this feature.

Thanks!

Hi all,

That email is the current guidance that we have regarding the Outlook integration; please follow the steps in the linked articles to keep legacy tokens enabled for now until June.

We are looking into how to proceed after June and there will be additional communication in the next few months once there are clear steps forward.

Hope that helps, @Samuel Mueller!

hi @Kyle Morgan,

I was not aware that this plugin is going to be killed. Pretty bad news if it's true.

I think that you can use zapier to create / update rows based on emails.

@Genevieve P. hoping you could get us a clear answer from Smartsheet around this? We received an email basically saying that the outlook integration will be eliminated in June this year.

Or is there another announcement somewhere that we are missing?

Thank you @Genevieve P. - We've activated our Legacy Tokens until June - Let's hope there's a way to keep this type of functionality alive, post-June.
